In-Town Pool Reports of April 29, 2021

In-Town Pool Report 1 - Gathering for depature

Good Morning from the White House on POTUS' 100th day in office.

In-Town pool is gathering for POTUS's Marine One departure to JBA.

In-Town Pool Report 2 -Delay/Still waiting

?Just as a heads up, for those inquiring, there's been a delay with the scheduled 10:10am M1 departure as POTUS taped an interview with NBC just before. Pool has been standing in position at the Ellipse for over an hour and will advise when he departs.

In-Town Pool Report 3 - Departure/ A Dandelion for FLOTUS

POTUS and FLOTUS arrived at the Ellipse at 11:18am and boarded Marine One shortly after. Just before they boarded, POTUS stopped and picked up a dandelion from the ground and handed it to FLOTUS.

Both waved to pool but did not come over for questions.

M1 and a second chopper were wheels up at 11:23am.

A quick note: Principal Deputy Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre will gaggle with reporters on AF1 en route to Georgia. The gaggle will be livestreamed at whitehouse.gov/live so pool will not be sending notes on this unless there are issues with the livestream.
